About "Liquid Light"
"Liquid Light" is true testament that the flame of inspiration can be ignited by absolutely anything. I was at a braai at the house of good friends of mine (where inspiration has struck various times before), when my friend randomly placed a torch at the bottom of my cool drink glass while I was taking a sip from it. Excited by the result he took a photograph to show me the effect. Needless to say one look at the image and my Inner Artist was instantly inspired.
It did, however, take a while for the idea to make it onto the canvas. Between the "torch incident" and the first yellow splash I went through a rather uncomfortable and seemingly endless Artist Block. Even though I bought a canvas especially for the "Liquid Light" idea, I went back and forth regarding the execution as I was just not in the mood for another portrait. At one point I even started drawing the image onto the canvas just to erase it again the very next day.
Finally, during the Easter Holidays when I was able to take a breather from ToonSchool, I was able to turn my attention to the blank canvas. I literally woke up one morning with the thought, "Dude, today you're going to paint. I don't care what you paint, or how badly you paint it, but there will be paint on that canvas before the sun sets on this day." While I was wrapping up a few stray errands my head was spinning excitedly between three possible ideas. At the very same time that the moment to choose between them fnally arrived, I received an e-mail from he Stellenbosch Arts Association announcing the theme for the upcoming Members' Exhibition namely, "To See the Light". The choice was clear and rather final.
Like so many of my pieces this artwork has a Spiritual foundation and to me it signifies that what you feed your Spirit with is what you ultimately will receive in return. As is Within, as is Without, and vice versa.
May the Creative Force be with you!
